Third Tier – Women In IT Scholarship
August 1, 2016 Leave a comment
My good friends from Third Tier have launched their very own scholarship program.
For those who don’t know Amy Babinchak or Susan Bradley, they are two of the smartest and hard working people you could ever hope to work alongside and on a personal note two of the kindest people i have ever met.
Why are we doing this? Third Tier is a woman owned business. Back when I wanted to get into IT my aunt gave me the money to get my first certification. This is my way of paying it forward. Although now deceased I think she would be proud of my accomplishments. At Third Tier all of our staff are dedicated community-first IT Professionals and we would love to welcome more people like us into this wonder career choice.
The scholarship will reimburse the exam fee for any successfully taken IT or DEV Certification, which to me, is a fantastic idea and a massive incentive to get studying! (if you need me i will be calling myself Loretta)
Getting more woman into Technology and STEM Subjects is something i am really keen to promote and i urge you to take five minutes and read the announcement from Third Tier and then share it around your local IT groups.
